I've installed the AllPro sliders before, had to add some mounting plates to the legs with gussets. At least the legs were welded on and pre-cut to length and angle. Still at least twice the work than what my sliders take to install.

Looks like Marlin's have even more work to do. $100 would be a bargain to get those installed.

 

o ordered mine today! woo im excited

 

Our bars are not that hard to install. It take about 3 hours to put them on. To install them we use two jack stands to hold the bars in place. Place the jackstands under the inside bar. Use a wire or small rope on the outside bar to hold the bar up at an angle of about 15 degrees. Make sure the door will clear the top of the bar before welding.

Now that you have the bar in position, you can cut the tubes to length. One end of each tube is prenotched. The other end get cut to length to fit. The front bar will need to be cut at an angle to fit the frame.

To get the bars up as high as possible you can notch the pinch weld seam on the bottom of the frame. This is easy to do with a grinder and will allow you to get the bars up another 1/2". There should be a 1/4" gap between the bar support tubes.

Here is a finished photo of the bars installed:

 

Chris, do you need or recomend scab plates or reinforcement?

 

It's a good idea to add some corner gussets (included) to each of the bars. Here is an install photo...

 

I installed the corner gussets my allpro sliders (sorry chris, I will be buying a sas kit and a t-case from ya though) they made a HUGE difference.

 

my sliders finally go on Tomorrow!
